01 · THE DISPATCH

The commander of the IRGC Aerospace Forces, Brig. Gen. Majid Mousavi, issued a statement urging supporters to obey Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and to pursue revenge for what he called the 'blood of the holy imam.' The statement was posted on an Iranian the source and attributed to Mousavi. He referred to Khamenei as 'the holy imam,' asserted that the Iranian people 'were sent to avenge his blood,' and called for a new covenant with the current leadership to achieve the goals of the Islamic Revolution.

Mousavi emphasized that commitment means full obedience: 'not one step forward, not one step backward — and stay by your leader.' He concluded by quoting the Islamic Republic's founder Ruhollah Khomeini: 'Be supporters of the rule of the jurist so that your country will not be harmed.'

The statement adds to a series of public declarations from senior IRGC commanders in recent days. On Sunday, The Zioneer reported on a similar call from the IRGC space force commander urging allegiance to Mojtaba Khamenei, the supreme leader's son. On June 11, Mousavi himself threatened to make the Strait of Hormuz 'hell' for the US amid ongoing strikes near the waterway.

It remains unclear whether this latest statement reflects internal IRGC coordination or serves as a separate political message during a period of heightened rhetoric.
